GPS Help?

I ahve a GM-210, just got it today, and I am having trouble getting it to work on a debian based machine. The USb-to-serial driver was pre installed and I have searched through and through and cant figure it out. What I am trying to do is get gpsd to work with the reciever(showing up on ttyUSB0) and then show a track within Gpsdrive.

Everything seems to work until I start up GPSdrive and I get errors saying it cannot get info from the reciever. It would be very helpful if someone could give me a nice little tut from beging to end, including the gpsdrive settings. Thanks in advance

yay

Well I got it working before anyone ever gave me a reply, oh well. Now Im curious if there is a way to get googlemaps integrated into gpsdrive. I have heard of it being done but not with stability, any help on this would be apreciated.

If you wanna know what I did here was my stupid mistake.

I had to restart to shutdown gpsd(easiest way)
then:
gpsd -p /dev/usb/ttyUSB0
ran gpsd-clients
xgps
I then saw taht I was connected to multiple satilites
start GPSdrive

thanks for the heads up. I will check out the software once I finish getting this custom linux install done. Compiling everything from source so I got a few more hours till its finished.

I have a side project IM working on that I want to test, anyone know of a good way to get gps long/lat/altitude data from the gpsd and into a xml gps format(gpx). I have found alot of tools for mapping out a track with google maps from logs and Id like to implment this as a gps tracking solution. I have seen something about gpxlogger and from what I understand its a project of gpsd.
